FRUITPORT TOWNSHIP, MI -- A 35-year-old pregnant Holton woman and her 6-year-old daughter are recovering after being injured in a rollover accident Thursday on U.S. 31.

Police and rescue workers responded to the scene at about 4:45 p.m. on northbound U.S. 31 near Sherman Boulevard. The driver of the Chevrolet Tahoe had apparently swerved to avoid striking the vehicle in front of it that had slowed, according to a news release.

The vehicle left the side of the roadway while swerving, and the driver lost control, causing it to roll over and rest on its roof. Family members told Fruitport police that the driver remains in the hospital — being treated for multiple broken bones — while the 6-year-old was treated for minor injuries and released.
